Ingredients

2 cups lowfat or natural yogurt

1 cucumber, seeded and shredded – Dutch/English cucumbers are my favorite for this

1 small tomato, finely chopped

About ½ cup cilantro, finely chopped

½ red pepper, diced

¼ cup mint leaves, finely chopped (optional)

1 - 2 cloves garlic, crushed

1 tsp cumin seed, toasted, not ground

Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper

Directions

Combine all ingredients, and chill until ready to serve

To save time, I roughly chop everything, then process all together in a food processor until fairly smooth, about 30 seconds.

Awesome! Especially good with spicy hot foods. I like a raita with my chile or a hot curry.
